The current Spider-woman has virtually no ties with Spider-man. Check out Wikipedia.org or Marvel.com for origin and info.

Jessica Drew, the first (and current) Spider-Woman was dying of radiation poisoning as a child, Her father, geneticist Jonathan Drew injected her with an experimental serum created with spider-blood, that was supposed to immunize her body against the radiation; when the healing process turned out to be too slow, Drew and his partner, Dr. Edgar Wyndham, placed the girl into a genetic accelerator which combined with the spider-blood and arguably the radiation, altered the girl's dna and her metabolism, giving her incredible powers.

She now possessed the proportionate strength of a spider, she was able to stick to walls, her agility and reflexes were superhumanly enhanced and her hearing became hyper-acute.
She was also totally immune to radiation,toxins and non-corrosive poisons...
In times of stress, her body discharged pheromones that repelled and/or atracted others.
And her metabolism also created her own " spider-venom" that she could unleash through her bio-electrical venom blasts.

that doesn't sound like the Bendis version.

:D
It's not.

I just prefer the one I posted, which is the original one from the SW comic books.
I loved SW:ORIGIN, but many parts of it were extrememly problematic as far as the MU history and continuity goes.

Then again, maybe Bendis plans to expand on and explain some of Orgin's stuff in his upcoming Spider-Woman book, which I of course plan to get.
But as far as a contained work, I was a little disappointed with the Origin mini.
